"Boom -"

at dusk, bursts of dull thunder come from the sky. During the flash of electric light, the rainstorm "clatters" down, and the bean sized raindrops "crackle" on the trees, roads and houses on the roadside

The dense rain curtain turned the surrounding area into a vast ocean, and the road was muddy.

In a small inn on the roadside, many guests were sitting in the lobby on the first floor, either to shelter from the rain or to sleep in.

Outside the house, the thunder roared incessantly. Suddenly, it was mingled with the sound of horse's hooves and wheels. It was getting closer and closer. In a short time, a green covered carriage came galloping in the rainstorm and stopped outside the inn.

The tall and thin man put on his coir raincoat and hat, and hurried out to greet him, "my guest, do you want to stay in? There are just a few rooms in our shop! "

"My husband and wife are going to stay in..."

"Rumble -"

there was another thunderclap, which almost silenced the outside voice. The guests sitting in the lobby directly drank tea, had dinner and talked.

In a moment, I saw a couple of young couples who seemed to be twenty-five or six years old. Both of them were dressed in purple. The women were elegant and the men were beautiful and straight. All of a sudden, they attracted everyone's attention. They couldn't help but exclaim:

what a perfect couple!

At this time, a silver lightning burst out in the dark sky outside, making the hall bright. The white light of the lightning made the two men's skin better than snow. Especially the purple robed man, who was more beautiful than a woman, had a pair of peach blossom eyes that were more bright than a star. He was not as handsome as an ordinary man.

If it wasn't for the wilderness, it would almost make people think that it was the fox spirits who turned into human beings and came to the world to bewitch all living beings.

The man in the purple robe took a piece of water-green PA and carefully wiped off the raindrops that hardly existed on the woman's shoulder. He asked with a smile, "ah Yue, are you hungry?"

Nangong Yue smiles and says, "Yi, it's almost time for dinner. Let's use some things first and then go upstairs."

"Two guests, this way, please." The little two politely beckoned them to the table by the window and sat down, "what do you want, my guest? We have many good dishes in our shop, such as spring bamboo shoots, mushroom and chicken soup, thousand pieces of meat, steamed perch, red bean cake, spring onion flavored rolls... " The second one introduced it in a flow of words.

Xiao Yi ordered a pot of Pu'er tea at random, and asked the second to serve six or seven good dishes, and he left happily.

"Cough, cough..."

On the right side of the table came a woman's mild cough. Nangong Yue followed the reputation and saw a couple of couples sitting at the table a few steps away, looking at the appearance in their early thirties.

The coughing woman was wearing a grape colored Ruyi pattern flower stick, a thick green silk tied into a crescent bun, and an eight treasure holding pearl flying swallow hairpin was inserted. At the moment, she was holding a veil to cover her mouth and coughing gently.

"Ming'er, you just caught cold in the rain?" The man beside the woman looked at him with concern. He was wearing a blue cloud brocade robe with a belt inlaid with sapphire on his waist.

"Master, I'm fine, but my throat is itchy for a moment." Women are humane.

"Minger, I think it's raining heavily. It can't stop for a while. Why don't we stay here for one night and go back tomorrow morning? You should rest early tonight The man in blue said softly.

The woman soon stopped coughing and answered.

Then, the blue robed man called the tall and thin waiter to come over and asked for an upper room. Then he ordered the servant girl in green to say, "Xia Lian, go to the carriage and get the lady's clothes."

"Yes, sir." The maid in green quickly put on the heavy coir raincoat and went out.

"Master Ding, madam Ding, this way, please!"

The little two led the couple up the stairs, and the sound of their footsteps gradually faded away

"The relationship between master Ding and Mrs. Ding is very good." In the corner of the lobby, a middle-aged woman in a blue dress and a round figure said with emotion. With envious eyes, she took back from the direction of the stairs, and looked at Xiao Yi and nangongyue. When her eyes moved to the grey man with a scuffed beard beside her, there was nothing left but dislike.

She pushed the big man in gray and complained, "my father, I'm also in the rain. Why didn't you ask me a question?"

The big man who was drinking was not on guard. He was pushed to drink half a cup. He looked at the liquor spilled on the table innocently and painfully.

At this time, another stout young man came quickly with some dishes in his hand, and gave Xiao Yi and nangongyue hot tea and snacks on the table, but he refuted the woman in green with meaning: "elder sister, some things can't be seen on the surface."

The woman in green suddenly brightened her eyes and inquired curiously: "little second brother, do you know something inside? Tell us about it. "

Several other guests also looked at the fat boy curiously, and an old man with gray hair urged him: "second brother, don't play tricks, but say ah!"

After serving Xiao Yi and nangongyue with the last plate of snacks, the fat boy took a few steps in the direction of the woman in green, took a look in the direction of the stairs, and said in a low voice, "master Ding and Mrs. Ding are rich gentry in the Dingjia village next door. The master Ding didn't originally have a surname of Ding..."When the fat boy mentioned this, the man in gray suddenly realized and said, "is that master Ding who broke in backwards?" There was more disdain in the words.

This man has a lot of hands and feet, so he has to do something else and eat a soft meal. Naturally, his character is not good!

Many people despised their sons-in-law. For example, in the Central Plains of Dayu, there was a law hundreds of years ago that stipulated that he could not be an official.

"It's a couple's life, whether it's a wife or a burden. As long as you live a good life, what does it matter? " The woman in green didn't think so. She looked at Nangong Yue and said to her, "this sister, do you think so?"

Nangong Yue was surprised and surprised. He subconsciously took a look at Xiao Yi. What he thought in his heart was that she did not dare to let the Grand Prince of Dayue get involved!

Xiao Yina is a bug in nangongyue's stomach. When you look at his princess's eyes and face, you can see what she is thinking.

He raised his eyebrows and laughed. There was a mischievous look in his bright dimple. He crossed the table with one hand and pulled a plain hand of Nangong Yue. He said affectionately, "ah Yue, for you, even if my father-in-law and mother-in-law let me in, I would like to." "In fact," he said, "nangongyi" is also very nice to hear

Outside the inn, Zhou Dacheng had just settled their carriage. He had intended to come in, but he heard such a sentence just outside the threshold. He could not help but stop thinking that he had heard something he should not have heard.

He thought about it, but he retreated in silence. He'd better feed the horses first.

Nangong Yue blinked, knowing that Xiao Yi was in the mood, so he didn't answer. However, the woman in green was quite moved. She pushed her man rudely and spilled half of the remaining half of the wine.

"Look at them!" The woman in Tsing Yi was angry and pinched the man. She said in her heart: how could I have picked such a pimple!

Looking at less than one-third of the wine left in the cup, the man in Gray was heartbroken and said, "people are talking about it! You take it seriously! Would you like to ask him if he would like to be a burden to his daughter? "

The big man in gray snorted coldly and glanced at Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue. When they saw the couple's bearing, they were from a rich family. If it wasn't for a man in the family to continue the incense, who would be willing to pay for it! What kind of good man can you recruit?!

To your daughter?! Xiao Yi's eyes were shining, and he looked at Nangong Yue excitedly and said, "ah Yue, let's give our daughter some help in the future." If his future son-in-law really loves their daughter, he should be willing to take over!

Nangong Yue is more and more speechless. He wants to remind Xiao Yi that they have only two sons and no daughter!

"Yi..."

Before Nangong Yue finished his words, the atmosphere around him suddenly became a little strange. Several guests all looked in the same direction - the direction of the stairs.

Nangong Yue also followed the eyes of those people and saw that in the middle of the stairs stood a blue robed man with proper facial features, which was the old master Ding.

Mr. Ding stood on the stairs looking down at the crowd, with a smile in his mouth and a deep silence in his eyes.

The woman in green and others can't help but move away from their eyes rigidly. They say that people's rights and wrongs are caught by the parties behind their backs. That's really embarrassing. Those people either drink wine, eat vegetables, or pretend to talk to friends as if nothing had happened.

As for Xiao Yi, he didn't care about master Ding at all. All he wanted was his own daughter. He gently shook Nangong Yue's hand and asked, "ah Yue, what do you think?"

Nangong Yue really did not want to continue this topic, vaguely answered, in his heart: anyway, they have no daughter!

"Little second brother," said master nading, as if nothing had happened, "and please ask the kitchen to cook a bowl of hot ginger soup for my wife

The fat little two was embarrassed and quickly agreed: "master Ding, wait a moment. I'll let the cook cook for you." With that, the fat boy quickly stepped down.

After that, Mr. Ding went upstairs. His footstep was not slow, light or heavy, but it clearly echoed in the ears of those guests. They all held their breath subconsciously.

When the door closed faintly from the upstairs, the crowd just breathed a sigh of relief.

The big man in gray glared at his mother-in-law, and said in a bad temper, "you're a woman with a long tongue. I want you to tell people right and wrong behind your back!" He wasted a glass of good wine!

The woman in green also felt guilty. She said a few good words and ordered a pot of wine for the man, which made the man happy.

After that, there were no waves in the lobby, and all diners ate separately.

After Xiao Yi and nangongyue finished eating, the sky was completely dark, but the rain did not show any sign of getting smaller. Obviously, there was nothing else to do in this small inn, so the guests went back to their rooms one after another.

This night, thunder, rain and lightning kept on, almost silencing the outside watchman.

Nangong Yue was tired all the way. He fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed. He was unconscious Until suddenly there was a scream that almost overturned the roof"Ah --"

the screams in the hysteria are continuous and obviously belong to women.

Soon, there were several "squeaking" sounds coming from outside, and several voices swearing and saying:

"who is it?"

"It's so disturbing in the middle of the night!"

"Are you still allowed to sleep?"

“……”

However, the woman's scream continued without any influence. Nangong Yue's sleepiness disappeared. He opened his eyes and found that there was nothing around him. Xiao Yi didn't know where he had gone.

"Yi..."

Before the voice dropped, a familiar tall figure walked into the inner room. The oil lamp at the head of the bed glowed yellow, and the man's white face and slender neck were delicate as white porcelain. The description was more and more soft and full of charm.

Xiao Yi, of course.

"Ah Yue, get up. I'm afraid I can't go back to sleep tonight Xiao Yi said slowly.

The scream outside finally stopped. Nangong Yue sat up with his thin quilt in his arms and raised his eyebrows in doubt to show his inquiry.

There is no need for Xiao Yi to answer. There is a sound of someone's "pedaling" upstairs, followed by a familiar voice:

"several guests, I'm sorry." The skinny boy's voice stuttered, "come out of the second floor Something happened... "

"Even if the heavenly king and Laozi came, you should give us an explanation today!" I don't know who it is.

Little two hesitated voice soon sounded: "two Second floor Dead people... "

This time, it was quiet all around.

"> there was a rumble of thunder in the sky.
